» Vailpass - Losing a twin to suicide


I lost my twin sister to suicide on Easter of this year. I feel like I have to be strong for my mom and that even if I do want or need to cry what is the reason to? It is not going to bring her back and it is not going to make anything better. But, I would give anything in the world to bring her back, even if it was just to tell her how much I loved her.

I am SO sorry for your loss. It is nothing less than a tragedy for your entire family and especially for you as her twin.

Even though I don't know you, God does so please know that I prayed for you today and my thoughts are with you in this terrible loss.

Elise,

I cannot even fathom the depth of your grief. I am so deeply sorry for your loss of your sister.

I know when times get really hard for me, only a few things make life bearable. I do find great comfort in both prayer and talking to a close friend. Sometimes even a counselor who can listen and understand is also great resource.

Do you need help finding resources or do you have them? I would be glad to help you in any way I can.

Brenda

Absolutely.. no problem.

There is not much anyone can do with a loss this big. How are you coping a year later?
